Matchup Breakdown

IU Indy Outlook

IU Indy averages 85.0 points per game, with Jaxon Edwards and Kyler D’Augustino leading the offense. Edwards’ 18 points vs Green Bay highlighted his efficiency, while D’Augustino adds scoring consistency. Their fast-paced style (74.5 possessions per game, 37th nationally) and ball movement (20.6 assists per game, 5th nationally) underscore offensive strength. Their 1-9 road record highlights struggles, though close contests like the 4-point loss to Wright State show competitiveness.

Milwaukee Outlook

Milwaukee averages 78.4 points per game, with Stevie Elam, Josh Dixon, and Danilo Jovanovich providing scoring depth. Jovanovich’s efficiency (59.1% FG, 12.4 ppg) adds balance, while Elam’s rebounding (7 boards vs Northern Kentucky) highlights interior presence. Their 6-2 home record underscores strength at Panther Arena, with rebounding (37.7 per game) and shot creation (60th nationally in field goal attempts) adding consistency.

Key Matchup / Path to Victory

The game hinges on IU Indy’s ability to maintain pace and perimeter shooting, while Milwaukee must lean on Jovanovich’s efficiency and rebounding to control tempo. If Milwaukee dominates the boards and limits turnovers, their depth should create separation. IU Indy’s hopes rest on fast-break scoring and ball movement to keep the game close.
